Change to USW Local 2010 and Local 2010-01 Initiation Fees

Effective January 1, 2019, a $10 initiation fee will be deducted from the wages of each new member of the bargaining unit for USW Locals 2010 (General Staff) and 2010-01 (Academic Assistants). A "new member of the bargaining unit" refers to an individual who becomes employed, for the first time, in a position within the scope of either the USW Local 2010 or the USW Local 2010-01 bargaining units. An individual who was previously employed under one of those agreements is not required to pay an initiation fee if they are subsequently re-employed under either of those agreements.

For clarity, if an individual holds appointments within both Union Locals, only one initiation fee will be deducted.
